Story 1 – “FBI Abuse and Cover-Up”

• FBI Director Kash Patel has fired agents involved in tracking phone calls of eight Republican senators and one congressman during a supposed investigation led by Special Counsel Jack Smith.

• It describes a hidden vault of subpoenaed communication records, suggesting a deliberate cover-up under the previous administration’s Department of Justice.

• The text portrays Patel as a whistleblower uncovering “deep state” corruption and restoring transparency.

• Senator Josh Hawley is quoted condemning the investigation as an abuse of power “beyond Watergate”, calling for a special counsel.

• The narrative concludes that the FBI and DOJ were weaponized against political opponents and that new leadership is “unsealing the vault” to expose them.

Story 2 – Letitia James Indicted

• New York Attorney General Letitia James has been indicted on federal bank fraud charges in Virginia.

• It asserts that she falsified mortgage documents and lied about property records.

• The narrative contrasts how mainstream media (CNN) allegedly downplays her wrongdoing while emphasizing Trump’s involvement.

• Commentary from Adam Kinzinger is quoted, supposedly acknowledging both James’s mistakes and the political motives behind her indictment.

• The story concludes by framing James’s case as part of a broader reckoning against the “deep state” and vindication for Donald Trump’s promises to hold his opponents accountable.
